Are we consumed by appetites that are robbing us of our God ordained
destiny? Yes you are born again and you love Jesus but what kind of
appetites have you allowed to dictate your lifestyle? Is it an appetite
for an illicit office affair? Or maybe you just have a big appetite for
ungodly movies? Are you just so consumed with an appetite for beer and
alcohol?
Yes you go to church and you want to serve God but you just cannot stay away from prostitutes. Or maybe its something like stealing you just love the thrill of picking things that are not yours and getting away with it? Or you simply have an appetite to tell lies? You just can’t seem to satisfy you appetite for secular ungodly music and music videos and you are constantly trying to justify why you just have to feed these appetites.
Whatever it is weather you consider it big or small, the more you feed it the more it grows until one day like King Solomon you will not only have 700 wives, but three hundred concubines to add on to that. You and I need to realize that our fleshly appetites are driving us further and further away from our God ordained destiny. Like Esau are you willing to sell your birth rite just to feed your fleshly appetite?
Our flesh has a never-ending appetite for sin and it is always looking for its next meal. Yet by the power of God’s Spirit, we can resist the temptation to feed our flesh and instead focus on the things of God. Like Daniel, Shadrack, Meshack and Abednego who hungered more for the things of God than for the things of men. Make up your mind today to feed your Godly appetites and not your fleshly ones.
